Interpretation : The possibility for an object to lose weight but at the same time not lose mass is to be explained.
Concept Introduction : Mass is a measure used to quantify an object in comparison to that standard mass of 1 kilogram. Weight is a force that determines how much gravity is pulling on a particular mass.
Answer to Problem 96A
Yes, an object can lose weight but at the same time not lose mass. Mass remains constant at any place whereas weight is dependent on the force of gravity.
Explanation of Solution
Mass is the measure of the amount of matter while weight is the measure of force.
Mass remains constant but weight depends on the place of the object.
There is a situation where the weight goes weightless but mass can’t be massless.
Yes, an object can lose weight but at the same time not lose mass.
The weight is dependent on the force of gravity.
The force of gravity of the Moon and Earth varies.
Since the force of gravity varies, weight also varies.
But the mass remains constant at any place.
